We're building a programme worthy of the occasion.

We're looking for West End and touring performers, creatives and industry professionals who want to connect with a passionate, dedicated fanbase in a truly unique setting.

Whether you're interested in performing, hosting a panel, taking part in a Q&A or offering a meet-and-greet experience, we'd love to hear from you. Get in touch with the team to discuss opportunities.
We're looking for recognised cosplayers and creators within the musical theatre and wider fandom community to join us as official Cosplay Guests.

If you have an audience who would love to see you at an event like this, and you'd love to inspire, connect and celebrate with them in person, we'd love to talk. Get in touch with the team to find out more.

What was your first musical theatre obsession?

What are you most looking forward to seeing at Oh So Stagey?

Interviewing Doré

Where did the idea for Oh So Stagey Fan Fest come from?

Musical Theatre Market grew so much faster than we anticipated and Stagey feels like a natural progression

What have you learned from running Musical Theatre Market?

To not be afraid of criticism or notes, people genuinely want to enjoy and be part of these types of events and the more we listen, the more we create events that the community treasure. Stagey folk are incredibly kind and generous and they reward those who act with integrity.

What would people be surprised to know about you?

Hmm…I’m fluent in Afrikaans – is that interesting though 😊? Also, I really wish I was funny, you know, had comedic qualities...

What is your role behind the scenes?

I’m much more on the logistics side of things, whereas Alexandra is the creative. We make a pretty good team

What’s your ultimate comfort musical?

Oh easy, Come From Away

Who’s the organised one and who’s the chaos gremlin?

Chaos gremlin is most certainly Alexandra!

What’s your emergency drink of choice?

Latte, definitely latte

What’s your phone camera roll mostly full of?

Pretty much everything Alexandra doesn’t have space for on hers…that girl loves to take photos!

What would you say to someone who’s nervous about coming?

We get it – coming into a new environment can be tricky for some, but you're absolutely welcome here! We've built Oh So Stagey Fan Fest to feel like a community, not a crowd. Our team are friendly, the space is navigable and there's a quiet space available if you need a moment to recharge.

If someone sees you at the event, should they come say hi?

Oooh yes please!! We love stopping for chats with fellow stagey fans!
